Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton – who of course won the Booker Prize for The Luminaries. This book could not be more different – and is astonishingly good. Set in NZ, it's about an ideologically driven guerrilla gardening group who plant crops in unused spaces, and when they hear about a farm in the South Island which has been abandoned after a major slip cut it off, they think that could be a great place to plant things. They reckon without an American billionaire (surely modelled on Peter Thiel) who also has his eyes on the farm, who tells them that he's building an end of days bunker there. Things become exhilarating for them, and then utterly terrifying. When I read this last year I said that it might well be my book of 2023. Becky by Sarah May. Fiction – a bit of a mash up between William Thackeray's Vanity Fair with its heroine Becky Sharpe; and the modern day Rebekah Brooks who was editor of the News of the World during the phone hacking scandal of the 90's. Our fictional Becky is a merger of the two – desperate to escape her past in a small town, and ruthlessly ambitious once she starts working on a London tabloid, where nothing will stand in her way. Really well done and great fun. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rebekah Brooks is returning to News Corp as chief executive of its UK division, a year after she was cleared of all phone hacking charges. Her appointment has been condemned by Hacked Off and the shadow culture secretary Chris Bryant. What impact will her return have on a business that has tried to re-shape its image in light of the phone hacking scandal? Steve hears from Peter Preston, former editor of the Guardian. The News Media Association, the trade body for the UK newspaper industry, is calling on the government to implement 10 changes around the scope of the BBC's digital news services. In its submission to the government green paper on the BBC charter review, it says it "fundamentally disagrees" with the corporation's ambition to grow this area of its business. Steve Hewlett talks to Mark Oliver, former head of strategy at the BBC, and founder of Oliver and Ohlbaum - the firm commissioned to write the report.Following the arrest of two British journalists working for Vice News on the charge of aiding a terrorist organisation, we discuss the state of press freedom in Turkey. Steve is joined by former editor of The Guardian Peter Preston, who travelled to Turkey in his previous role of chairman of the International Press Institute (IPI) and Turkish journalist Yavuz Baydar, the founding member of P24, the Platform for Independent Media.ATVOD, The Authority for Television On-Demand, is the independent co-regulator for the editorial content of UK video on-demand services. With websites of every stripe publishing video content to entice viewers, Steve speaks to ATVOD's Chief Executive Peter Johnson about the organisation's ever-broadening remit and how regulation differs between news and entertainment content.Producer: Katy Takatsuki.
Rebekah Brooks, the former tabloid newspaper editor who was cleared of all charges in Britain’s phone-hacking scandal, is returning to a new job in Rupert Murdoch's media empire. It is her first step back on to the News Corp ladder after her resignation in 2011. Henry Mance and Matthew Garrahan discuss her new role. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
The former News of the World editor Andy Coulson has been found guilty of conspiracy to hack phones. His predecessor Rebekah Brooks has been cleared of all charges, in a trial which has been one of the most lengthy and expensive in criminal history. Steve Hewlett discusses what the trial has revealed about the culture of an industry competing to break the biggest stories; the relationship of the press with politicians and public bodies, and asks what damage the scandal has done to Rupert Murdoch's empire. A panel of media insiders also consider how the fallout from the hacking story, namely the Leveson inquiry and new press regulations, has impacted on journalism. Joining Steve is Nick Davies, the Guardian journalist who exposed the phone hacking scandal; Neil Wallis, former Deputy Editor of the News of the World; Lord Norman Fowler, former chairman of the House of Lords select committee on communications; journalist and Executive Director of Hacked Off, Joan Smith; Harriet Harman, Labour's Deputy Leader on her calls for tough regulation, and Peter Preston, former editor of the Guardian. Producer: Katy Takatsuki.

In part two, Rick and I spend a little time talking about the recent scandal involving Rupert Murdoch's paper The News of the World, which has now collapsed under the leadership of Rebekah Brooks. We look at both Brooks' and Murdoch's charts, and also briefly discuss Murdoch's current transits. We then move to a dialogue about a couple of questions I've been reflecting on recently regarding the nature of archetypes, and how they correlate to configurations in the natal chart and transits. I've been reflecting on the truth that each of us contain all of the archetypes (or perhaps more accurately, as James Hillman would insist, we are contained within all of the archetypes), that we all have access to all of the archetypal energies all of the time as represented by the planetary archetypes and there combinations with each other (aspects). But what then does this imply for astrology which suggests that certain archetypes are more dominant in some of us, and that certain archetypes can become more dominant at certain times (transits). Does the fact that we have access to all of the archetypes all of the time, mean that any correlations we find to natal positions or transits are ultimately meaningless (in a spiritual sense) given that we contain everything anyway? A rich dialogue ensues.
Yesterday Rupert and James Murdoch and Rebekah Brooks were questioned by MPs about exactly what went wrong at the News of the World. But has their evidence thrown any new light on the phone hacking scandal or made clear who will take responsibility at News International? Paul Farrelly, one of the MPs who questioned Rebekah Brooks and the Murdochs during yesterday's select committee, discusses what we have learned about the workings of News International and the BBC's political editor Nick Robinson joins Steve Hewlett from Westminster for an update on the political fall out of the scandal. Roger Alton, the executive editor of The Times looks at Rebekah Brooks's assertions that The News of the World was not the only newspaper to use private investigators to source information and discusses what wider investigation could mean for British journalism. Media lawyer Duncan Lamont discusses James Murdoch's explanation of why such high payments were made to Gordon Taylor and Max Clifford to settle a case for invasion of privacy. And Sarah Ellison, the US based journalist who has been following the News of the World phone hacking scandal for Vanity Fair, joins The Media Show from New York to discuss how the story is developing in the USA.

The phone hacking scandal at the News of the World moved to another level this week after it emerged that private investigators working for the paper hacked the phone of Milly Dowler after her abduction. As further revelations about phone hacking come to light and MPs call an emergency debate, The Media Show hears from the experts about what this means for the News of the World and its owner News International. Have the allegations about phone hacking irreparably damaged the paper? And can Rebekah Brooks, who was the editor at the time phones were hacked, continue?Steve Hewlett hears from Lord Fowler, who has launched a campaign for an official inquiry, Bob Satchwell of the Society of Editors, Stuart Purvis, former partner at the media regulator Ofcom, Ben Fenton of the Financial Times and Dan Sabbagh of The Guardian, about what the latest developments mean for the British press.
